customers, and the communities in which we operate. Use of illicit drugs and the
inappropriate use of alcohol, medications, or other substances can have serious adverse
effects on performance, safety and well-being of contractor’s employees, our employees,
customers, other contractors, visitors and on the public or the environment.
POLICY STANDARDS

other drugs, adhere to our fitness for duty standards which are set out below and, in the Policy,
and conduct themselves in an appropriate and safe manner while working for or on our site by

This Policy applies to all contractors, suppliers or representatives who may be engaged in work on
our premises or work sites by ongoing contract for more than one day on an annual basis.
The Policy also applies to project work which will be greater than one day in duration.
i. Illicit Drugs: The following are prohibited while working for or on our site:
• The use, possession, distribution, offering or sale or purchase of illicit drugs or drug
paraphernalia;

other acceptable to us method of confirming use of an illicit drug.
ii. Alcohol:
The Contractor must have expectations for full disclosure from a Contractor’s Worker
regarding any medication which might affect safe operation, and take appropriate steps
to ensure use of the medication does not impair their ability to perform their duties
safely and efficiently and to minimize associated risk, which would include notifying
their company or a representative of any need for modified work under the
circumstances.
iv. Possession of Alcohol or Drugs: We reserve the right to conduct investigations when
there are reasonable grounds to believe that alcohol or illicit drugs are present on
premises owned, contracted or otherwise controlled by us or by our customers or
clients. Any Contract Worker who refuses to submit to a search requested by our
representative will be removed from the premises or worksite by the Contractor or,
failing action by the Contractor, by us.
vi. Safety Sensitive Testing: While we is not requiring that contractors undertake safety
sensitive testing at this time, we do recommend this as a “best practice” when hiring
new employees who will be engaged in safety sensitive work, be they permanent
employees or casual workers.
vii. For Cause & Incident Related Testing: A program for this testing is expected to be in
place for all contractors and their employees conducting Weyerhaeuser work. This
includes administrative work conducted on our worksite.
If there is any reason to believe any Contractor’s Worker is on duty in an unfit or unsafe
condition, or otherwise in contravention of the basic intent and provisions of this policy:
• the Contractor will be notified and must conduct the Contractor’s Worker to a safe
place. If the Contractor cannot be located immediately, our supervisor will conduct the
Contractor’s Worker to a safe place;
• the Contractor must investigate the situation;
• The Contractor must refer the person for an alcohol and drug test if there is reasonable
cause to believe alcohol or other drugs are or may be a factor;
• The Contractor must satisfy us that there was no breach of this policy; and
• the Contractor’s Worker must not return to work for on our business, premises, or
worksites without written permission from us in advance, and must adhere to any
conditions governing their return.
Failure of a Contractor’s Worker to abide by these provisions may result in permanent removal
of that person from work on our business, premises, or worksites. Failure of contractors or
their employees to meet these expectations will be considered a breach of the Contractor’s
contract with us, and may result in termination of that contract or an obligation to pay
damages to us.
